To achieve the best outcomes, the brief suggests, plug-in vehicle adoption should typically be focused on HEVs and PHEVs by city drivers in mild-climate regions with a clean electricity grid, such as San Francisco or Los Angeles. Further, drivers should not be encouraged to charge at night in coal-heavy regions.

AC is the type of electricity that flows through power grids and into homes and businesses, including to power EV chargers. AC can be thought of as "low and slow" charging, while DC is very fast and powerful. DC is the type stored in batteries. That’s why you’ll see the term DCFC or DC Fast Charge.
